Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Introduce segmented addresses to the emulator
Date: Wed, 17 Nov 2010 13:40:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1289994060-15862-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)

Currently we lose segment information associated with memory operands.  This
prevents us from doing proper segment checks.

This patchset prepares the way by remembering which segment is associated
with a memory operand.

Avi Kivity (2):
  KVM: x86 emulator: preserve an operand's segment identity
  KVM: x86 emulator: do not perform address calculations on linear
    addresses
